The World Day of Prayer was held at the chapel on 4 March 2022
Thank you to all those people who came to the service in the Chapel on the World Day of Prayer.
£120 was raised for the World Day of Prayer projects.
GMCC is praying for different countries and areas each month. This month we are praying for
UKRAINE
Father, today we pray for the escalating situation in Ukraine.
We confess that in times of such rapid change and on issues of such complexity,
it can be difficult to know how to pray.
So we start with our praise and thanks to you,
who remains steadfast and faithful,
all-seeing and all-knowing.
We re-orientate ourselves in you, your timescales,
your ways and your purposes.
We remind ourselves of your love for this earth you formed and those you created in
your image.
We struggle to see clearly through confusion and misinformation,
yet recognise an age-old lust for power, control and violence.
We pray for those already mourning,
those who are fleeing homes and livelihoods,
for those who are fearful and vulnerable.
We pray for intermediaries on the ground
and those seeking to defend life and liberty.
Blessed are the peacemakers.
Amidst the political posturing and frightening military action
we pray for those involved in genuine diplomatic efforts to avert further bloodshed.
We remember how Jesus resisted being co-opted into the religious and political uprisings of competing empires.
We remember how He spoke to heal the sick, calm the storm and raise the dead. We too pray that the name of God would not be invoked in destructive nationalistic ways.
We pray for powerful words and miraculous actions –
for de-escalation, peace and justice, repentance and restoration.
On earth as it is in heaven, and for our faithful witness until then, Amen.
Prayer by David Smyth, Head of Northern Ireland Evangelical Alliance.
The chapel is looking to do a time capsule later in the year. If you would like to add anything to it please do get in touch!

Faith, fellowship and fun
Welcome to you all!
We are a small friendly congregation who worship together every Sunday morning at 10.30 am.
Why not come along and see whether you would like to join us? We are committed to working in our community to offer hope and support and to bring members of our community together in faith and love.
You will always find a warm welcome, friendship and support.
Each week we hold a different style of service. We hope one or more will suit you.
1st Sunday
Café Service. This is an all-age service of worship, starting off with coffee and croissants followed by a half hour service of songs, prayers and worship. The service provides toys and activities for children including pre-school children. The service is very informal, sometimes a bit noisy but always joyous.
2nd Sunday
Shared service usually with Litlington Congregational Church. This service will be at 11am if we are at Litlington and will be a more formal style of service. Check on our Diary page to check time and place.
3rd Sunday
We join with our friends from St Mary’s Church of England church for a shared service of worship. The venue alternates and sometimes the service at St Mary’s may be at 10 or 11 am. The service at the chapel will always be at 10.30. Again please check with our Diary page for time and place.
4th Sunday and /or last Sunday of the month
On the last Sunday of the month we hold our communion service. We welcome to our communion table all who have accepted Jesus as their Lord and Saviour. Those who may be unsure of their faith are most welcome to join us and can, if they wish, receive a blessing instead during the service.
Usually the fourth and last Sunday are the same but occasionally we get a month with 5 Sundays. If this is the case we often try to offer a different kind of service so check with our Diary page.
So whatever type of service may suit you best please come along and give us a try and join us for fellowship and worship. It is a great opportunity to give thanks, to learn and reflect, to enjoy and support each other.
